It would be great if we could all join forces on the MacOS X Pd.apps.
There would be much less duplicated effort then, and a much better and
more up-to-date Pd.app available.
The code is all there, its poorly documented I will admit, but I will
definitely answer any questions about it. And, of course, we encourage
anyone who has something to contribute to become a developer in the
SourceForge project.
As for the Help submenus, it was an incomplete effort, it definitely
needs work.

Greetings again,
I have posted a new version of an installer for OS X.

Rob Lycett requested that I add the comport library and its documentation, so I did. I was also frustrated by tcl/tk handling
of submenus within submenus. If anyone knows how to do this, please
let me know. So, I placed the 7.stuff subdirectories directly into the Help menu which is not elegant and only temporary. I also added a zexy submenu to Help (which I had previously forgotten). So, now there should be easy to find documentation on basic PD objects, the libraries Gem, vasp, pmpd, Han's hid, and Zexy, plus everything
inside the stuff folder including (now) comport.I feel that a better way to organize the Help menu (with my
segregated library approach) would be to do it with submenus for PD and major libraries and an extra folder for smaller things:PD Documentation/ HTML manual/ control examples/ audio examples/ fft examples/ Gem/ pmpd/ vasp/ zexy/ extras/ hid/ comport/ stuff/ audio playpen/ data-structures/ soundfile-tools/ synth/ tools/
Unfortunately, this would require a restructuring of PD
documentation as it is now, and I would have to understand how to create submenus
in submenus in tcl/tk. Can anyone do this? What would be really cool would be to adjust the Pd script so that Help documentation of a particular library does not appear until the library is loaded.
That way, we avoid users opening help patches and getting messages about objects not existing (or worse yet, PD crashing).Samuel Burt
